Modeled estimate, not a reported figure. How we estimate →
Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 71.71/day in the week to Jul 30 → 92.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Genres
Add-ons
Each DLC is estimated with the same model as a game, then summed — a modeled figure, not reported DLC sales.
Sums Steam only; PlayStation, Xbox, GOG, Epic publish no volume signal, so the true total is higher by an unknown amount.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 19: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Bland, lifeless game. It's the height of mediocrity. Every second spent was a waste
The new, dare i say entirely unnecessary update ruined the two mods i had and the only ones i wanted, ironic that it was an update which allowed for more mods, even if i wanted more mods the space i was given was good enough.
Paid mods and a 7th re-release or whatever.
Loved the part where the 5 Elder Scrolls reads "This is Skyrim Special Edition". Then Bethesda turned it into a loading screen. Absolute Cinema
I am a faithful Bethesda fan and have loved Skyrim from the day I played it in 2011. Since that day I have purchased this game at MINIMUM 13 times, and Bethesda has taken my money happily every single time. Each time I felt more hesitant than the last because of small letdowns, but I persisted because this game single-handedly saw me through almost my entire adult life. Just like ANY OTHER game I have been a long time fan of, I had the apparently foolish expectation to play the game once I purchased it. I have owned this particular version for PC for YEARS and although this account doesn't reflect it, previous accounts that I PURCHASED AN ADDITIONAL COPY FOR BTW have seen several hundred hours of my life. Now I am here to confess I can no longer support this game or this company. How can you continue to break games with updates to the point that lifelong players can't enjoy them and sleep at night? At the risk of sounding like a bitter ex, BECAUSE I AM, do not purchase or play this game. The time spent to enjoy it can be destroyed in a single snap by greedy ungrateful people that lay off hard working folks that put a lot of time into a project that could have been shared/has been shared with generations. I hope you choke on that money Todd.
Best game ever!
